Samsung Galaxy Tab A T550

Got this as I had a 7" one that is too small for me now and though I was concerned that it might be a bit big going from a 7" to a 9.7" was going to feel unwieldy I was pleasently surprised as it was a lot lighter than I expected even in the case I bought to go with it.It was easy to set up as even though it came with Spanish language setting I was able to change it to English (UK) very easily not only that, I was able to transfer most of my files from my old tablet to this one so my apps were transferred rather than me having to reinstall them and it updated straight away and far faster than my old tablet, it also starts up much faster - about as fast as my Samsung Galaxy phone. The screen is very clear and the touch screen works perfectly though the predictive text is a bit of a pain but show me one that isn't lol, but I can live with it :-)I've only been using it for a day but I'm very happy with it and now I can touch type making it easier for me to type this review - yay, I'm a happy bunny :-). I think I won't be buying another one until this one dies - sorry Amazon ;-). If you get the impression that I love this tablet, you're right, and at under £200 you can't go wrong

Spent a lot of time researching and reading reviews on various tablet devices, having never owned one before I wanted to make sure I made a well informed decision. I decided to go with this device and I am very pleased I did. It is a very well made device and the spec are excellent when compared to the price, it is great value.I find the 16gb internal storage a little small and so very easy to fill depending on the apps, games, pictures/videos you have on the device. Thankfully this device enables you to expand the storage by adding a microSD card upto 128gb, I only went for a 64gb but find it ample size for me.The screen is amazing and covers a vast range of beautiful colours, especially nice for watching films on the go. It is a nice thin light weight device even when in a protective case. Battery life is good depending on the usage.

Very reasonable price for a great tablet. It arrived carefully packaged and well presented in the box surrounded by bubble wrap. There was a 50% charge in the battery already so it was possible to set it up immediately. I left the tablet on stand by when not using it and it took a week for the battery to run down (I do not use the tablet all the time, but downloading and upgrading apps etc and watching You Tube video's and writing many emails, the battery still lasted far longer than I expected).It does not come with a screen protector, but these are readily available on Amazon; I bought a pack of 5 TECHGEAR® Samsung Galaxy Tab A 9.7 Inch (SM-T550 / SM-T551 / SM-T555) ULTRA CLEAR LCD Screen Protector Guard Covers With Screen Cleaning Cloth & Application Card, which are perfect for this.

yes came on time was happy it arrived in one piece, but did not expect there to be a sweet taped to the box thought this was kinda weird so i dont know if this is a one off or it has happened to anybody else, it is a original samsung not fake but the charger to it looks kinda funny even though it is a original charger to samsung. good size tablet great operating system better than being tied down with apple os system.

Great

I bought this to replace a first generation ipad. It is slimline, very fast and has a nice clear screen. I also like the fact that it is compatible with other android devices and Microsoft software. No memory issues as yet but I have bought an SD card to use if and when needed. It is not as pleasing to the touch as the new I Padstow but it is perfectly and accordingly priced by comparison.

Why would you buy an I Ipad, I've had an Ipad mini for the last 4 years and it was starting to get a little long in the tooth, this Tab A is no slouch it's quick, has a nice feel to it, it's got a lovely screen and best of all I got a 64gb micro sd card for about £14 so it now has 4 x the storage capacity of my Ipad for next to no outlay, also with the help of a free app screen mirrors to my new ultra HD TV

This item was purchased as a Birthday present for my husband. It arrived early, as the outer package had been damaged, I checked the item. The inner package was also torn, but the cardboard box containing the Tablet was fine, and the Tablet itself seem ok. I wrapped it up and gave it to my husband a couple of weeks later. The worst thing he said was the lack of information and instructions, so had to go online and print them out. Luckily, he is not a stranger to computers etc, but he is taking chemo which does not help his memory, so it was a struggle to get it going. He is still learning his way around the Tablet, but so far is finding it interesting. He has taken photographs with it, and has been pleased with the results. It's easy to carry it around, so far he is fairly happy.
